How does tartar sauce fit your goals?

Most of the calories in tartar sauce come from fat (4.7g per 2 tbsp (28g)), which makes it calorie-dense — easy to under-portion if you're eyeballing. Dietary fat is essential for hormone production and absorbing fat-soluble vitamins, but at 9 calories per gram it's also the macro most people accidentally over-consume when they stop weighing portions.

Diet-wise, tartar sauce fits keto and low-carb eating patterns.
